My Controller Classes are

public class UserController : BaseController

According to http://www.peterprovost.org/blog/2012/06/19/adding-ninject-to-web-api/ this blog I organized my NinjectDependencyScope class, NinjectDependencyResolver class and NinjectWebCommon as follows:
public class NinjectDependencyScope : IDependencyScope
{
private IResolutionRoot resolver;
internal NinjectDependencyScope(IResolutionRoot resolver)
{
Contract.Assert(resolver != null);
this.resolver = resolver;
}
public void Dispose()
{
var disposable = resolver as IDisposable;
if (disposable != null)
disposable.Dispose();
resolver = null;
}
public object GetService(Type serviceType)
{
if (resolver == null)
throw new ObjectDisposedException("this", "This scope has already been disposed");
return resolver.TryGet(serviceType);
}
public IEnumerable<object> GetServices(Type serviceType)
{
if (resolver == null)
throw new ObjectDisposedException("this", "This scope has already been disposed");
return resolver.GetAll(serviceType);
}
}
public class NinjectDependencyResolver : NinjectDependencyScope, IDependencyResolver
{
private IKernel kernel;
public NinjectDependencyResolver(IKernel kernel)
: base(kernel)
{
this.kernel = kernel;
}
public IDependencyScope BeginScope()
{
return new NinjectDependencyScope(kernel.BeginBlock());
}
}
public static class NinjectWebCommon

kernel.Bind<IHttpModule>().To<HttpApplicationInitializationHttpModule>();

GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.DependencyResolver = new NinjectDependencyResolver(kernel);
return kernel;
}
